Neverwinter UncensoredThe refugee camp for truly free and unhamstered talk about Neverwinter Online!2018-02-22T04:35:51https://www.nwo-uncensored.com/phpBB3/app.php/feed2018-02-22T01:27:452018-02-22T01:27:45https://www.nwo-uncensored.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?t=1912&p=20685#p20685"as for Alumana, YES, i did made some jokes, but i never posted SS of how she looks on pmvspm, but Casper did... ofc everyone saw the SS, but i couldnt care less how Alumana looks like or what she does IRL, the thing it was that everytime i was doing PvP, Alumana was harrasing me and telling people in PmVsPM that i want to fuck her or rape her or whatev... i told her few times to stop doing that, and she was mocking me on PmVsPM that i have a small dick etc. I didnt played the victim or felt offended, but i couldnt reason with her into making her stop. Few week later what happened was that the Bully named Alumana, got bullied by the midnight express, i was there when that happend on pmvspm and yes i did made a few jokes, because i found it fair for what she has done to me.. but i did not post her pictures or anything, just made a joke or two. Perhaps it was wrong of me to make those jokes.. But she never apologized for what she said about me in the past.

So to get the story straight - Alumana used to send me PMs and say all of the mean stuff, one day Casper posted a picture of her, i made few jokes about it, and that was all. "

Okay to start off, I never said anything of the sort Lancer. I said the following in sheer trash talk manor; ' You're Casper's bitch, Guild art's is Casper's alter boy and that you needed to grow the fuck up stop picking on someone who's not even 30 yet. Act like adults. ' I have never said you wanted to sleep with, rape or anything like that, I wouldn't touch you with a 10' pole other then working with you in Pvp. As for PMvsPM I barely talk anymore. If I do it's just briefly in passing. I was even a member of your discord for a time before I left it after reading this bullshit and I have never said a fucking thing to you. So, kindly fuck off because you're memory is a bit hazy.

On my last note. Idk where you got my info in the first place but you need to stop linking that shit present day. It disturbs me you dug up a post from over 2 years ago to link here. Why would you need to vindicate yourself so much? It's sick, just stop bruh.

Is anyone having problems getting Aliases and Binds to install and uninstall since the latest patch? I use a slightly modified version of the original posted on the first page of this thread that I have been using for months with no problems. I did some tinkering recently to add some of the advanced binds for my DC. When I went to reload the binds with the alias /installBinds nothing happened on the character I tried it on. None of my other characters are affected and the binds work as they always did. I have not uninstalled on any of the other characters and I am scared to do so.

I tried to reset and return to defaults on that character.I tried to log completely out and reset to defaults on that character.I removed all of the changes I made to the CommandAliases.txt and still no joy. (I should have backed it up first before changing it to begin with.)I went line by line and checked syntax and spacing but still no joy.I used /unbind_all to reset and tried to load again. Nope.

I am at a loss, anyone have any ideas?

I would say the most likely scenario is you have an unmatched quote that got stylized. Especially " has a tendency to get formatted automatically in a bunch of text editors.

When you execute a command, does it say "unrecognized command" or does it do something else?

When I troubleshoot, I usually start with the commands at the top of the CommandAliases.txt and see if they execute. The first command should. I keep going down the list until I hit a command that does not work, and I look for unmatched or stylized quotes.

Another thing to note is that you don't actually have to exit/restart the game to make the changes. With the game open, you can open CommandAliases.txt, make a change, save, tab back to game, and try out the revised command. It reads from the file upon command resolution, rather than reading only when the game starts and storing in memory.

Finally, make sure you are editing the CommandAliases.txt in the right subfolder. Playtest and Live have different subdirectories, and I've definitely gotten myself confused about which one I was editing.

There's tons of random items you can craft for trade credit in the 2nd image (varies from 300-1200 each). 3rd image shows the mats needed for a few trade credit items. Also, you can see the orange item at the bottom (Soulsight Spectacles in this case).

You can use your old MW2 tools so everything crafts at 75% (including final orange item) but it's still a major pain since you're crafting on the order of 100 cheap trade credit items or 50 expensive ones where that 25% failure rate adds up.

Edit: In terms of cost, it's not as bad as it could be since (at least on preview), the temp merchants have the MW3 mats, which helps a little bit: https://imgur.com/a/PUKJe

Maybe CON for hp and APG Tanks. Depending on Paragon and Feat Tree.

And thank you so much for taking the time to lay out the calculations in full. I tend to get lost when people jump a few steps. I always have to actively think about BODMAS etc, which is why I like to multi-bracket all the terms, as that makes it easier for me to follow!

DOH!

I'll have to give this some more thought for my new Tiefling GF. I have those BtA CA Companions in the Bank, so I thought I might as well make use of them. They are Green, though, with 2% CAB damage atm. So that would be a lot of AD to rank up. I also have a few blue and green Archons and various Epics. So I could go all dps or all Tank. Maybe flip between Summoning the Air or Earth Archon or something.

I never bought a Zen Companion as they are one-offs. If they were account-wide like the mounts, I would have bought some. I did get two packs in various sales over the years, so I have the Epic Sylph from Knights of the Feywild and the blue Erinyes of Belial from SW Booster Pack. So all my characters can claim those, as well as green Ioun of Radiance, Renegade Illusionist and the icy Archer thing from various Arc Promos. The Active Bonuses are pretty crap on the greens, but the Ioun can take 3 rank 11 Runes and 2 double-enchant companion Rings and a double-enchant Belt which are BtA. So it's fine for solo play and Epic dungeons up to Mod 9 or 10. Not optimal for FBI or ToNG, though.

But I do have an awful lot of blue and purple companions in the bank I could never decide where to use, as I did not want to waste them. With a non-Augment, I could use the Bondings I have upgraded over the years.

Crit SeverityYou are saying that are the higher your Crit Severity, the less effect CA bonus damage has when you Crit? So GF builds based on stacking STR and CHA and having very low Crit chance, but more Power and ArPen (and Defence), are not very effective? Due to the nerfs to the companions?

EG, a Tiefling with +2 CHA & CON and stacking STR and CHA.

A GF gets no Crit bonus from their Attribute scores, as they are all about APG, Max hp and ArPen, with dps and Stamina from STR. So I wonder how a high Power/STR/CHA GF would work with very low Crit Chance and Crit Severity? As long as I can stack gear with no Critical Strike on it but have Power, ArPen, Defence and Regen instead.

Attributes will not make or break a build. But yes +CAD from attribute is not super duper. Because usually adding onto a big base of CritSeverity+AllTheOtherCAyouAlreadyHave. Kind of how +1000 power doesn't help a lot if you already have 100k power.

I won't comment on specific builds, since I'm not all that familiar with GF dps builds. But yes, +CAD is worth a lot less than +damage on attribs. However, if you are not running a crit build then maybe it's still pretty decent. Again, a few points here or there probably isn't going to be the most significant thing to your build.

Do you think that replacing the CA bonus Companions with things like the Siege Master (+4% damage, +8% on Stronghold map) would be better for a dps Tank? Maybe throw in a Blacksmith to reflect some damage?

Yes, absolutely take Siege Master over +5% CAB. I'd guess it's somewhere like twice as good or more for a typical dps build. I would also grab an Earth Archon. % damage bonuses are way better than anything else by a good margin.

You can calculate the benefit for your kind of situation minus all pets. I'm assuming you have pretty low CA you're not taking combatant's maneuver boon for instance. I'm also assuming you don't have a vorpal. If you have more CA or more CritSev, then the CA pet will provide even less bonus.

You can redo the math with higher CritSev and CA and see that number drop below 2%.

QUOTE:

Also, I know that the Owlbear Cub was nerfed for SWs built around it with very low Crit chance, as Piller of Power could not Crit. Now, it also does not proc from DoTs and has a 1 second cooldown?

Would it be worth trying with a low crit, high Power GF who does not use DoT Encounters like Kneebreaker? Failing to Crit with an Encounter and doing a hit for 50% of your Power would boost general dps, but would that ever be as much as a Crit at 75% Crit Severity and a Trans Vorpal?

Not sure about OBC recently. Last I heard, it got nerfed way down and is not a viable dps companion anymore. It was good when it was multi-procing, but now it has an ICD and doesn't tick fast enough to be viable.

QUOTE:

Building around a bug is never a good idea. But building around something that has been fixed might work? And trying to take advantage of a race's natural abilities.

Yup

But literally every class is buggy, and sometimes it's hard to tell what's WAI. Many (most? all?) classes kind of depend on bugs to be optimal in endgame, and people take some of those bugs for granted. The game has always been that way, it's muddy as hell to understand what the devs intend.

So yeah, don't build around bugs. Or at least do so in an informed way.

I don't believe Neverwinter has that kind of massive population needed for more servers to be added.

I don't actually want separate servers, as that would mean many on my Friends List would disappear.

I want a game with no Cash Shop, lootbox keys that drop in-game, and everything is available through all types of play: Invoking, Professions, Dailies, Weeklies, Dungeons, Skirmishes, story quest-lines.

And everything is BtA.

My idea was that if they have 1, 3, 6 and 12 month subscriptions, they will have a reasonable idea of their income over the next 4 Quarters, and so could work on fixing bugs and general QAL fixes. This would probably also kill Bots and Gold Seller Websites.

They used two servers for ESO:U and my Guild friends in Australia used the US Server and I used the EU Server, so we could not play together. I had to re-install for the US Server. Then, a single update for DLC I was never going to buy needed 30 GB to update, so I stopped it updating and never went back.

I suppose another method of circumventing any loot box ban might be to give the game an 18R certificate, and proof of age would be needed to sign up?

What would be a reasonable sliding scale for a subscription game, no cash purchase of Virtual currency?

First Month FREE1 month $153 months $406 months $7512 months $135

Basically, $5 off for buying 3 months, buy 6 months for the price of 5, buy 12 months for the price of 9.

Does that seem reasonable? In UK Sterling, I think it is.

For this to be a subscription game, I would expect to get more servers (mirrors) for any kind of monthly fee. Currently this game runs on 1 server with a proxy in Europe. A proxy doesn't contain any of the server files, it is just another "middle man" so people in Europe get a faster connection to the California server. In comparison to other online games, the biggest issue with Neverwinter, Star Trek, and Champions is hardware or the lack of hardware. When the one and only computer server goes down, all 3 games go down on all 3 platforms PC, XB1, and PS4.

I am not saying they have to be massive like Blizzard's WoW, but even Guild Wars owns at least 2 servers now, one in North American and the other in Europe. Players may believe they have tons of servers, but these "worlds" they inhabit are just shards on the same server, or instances that contain their character's data.

Currently I would say, charge a small fee for access to an exclusive server. But then they would need to actually buy a new server to copy the data on it. There would still be no guarantee that some hacker wouldn't start attacks or that gold sellers wouldn't buy in to sell to the players there as well. The other issue that arises is server population. The fore-mentioned Guild Wars 2 thought they would have millions of players and back in 2012 when they opened the doors. However population dropped after 6 to 8 months and the worlds became a vast wasteland. The simple reason was, "Great game I beat it, what is next?". The next module wasn't ready and people failed to return. I don't believe Neverwinter has that kind of massive population needed for more servers to be added.

Steam reports on population of many games, Neverwinter happens to be one of them. I am not stating that "everyone" plays on Steam but it can be used to judge over all population and popularity in a given community. Steamcharts shows an average of 3,000 players online daily for the past 3 months. If you make a F2P model solely subscription, that would drop dramatically. I can't say what my wife would do about the game going sub, but many would leave and play other games that are F2P.
